Grow

Professional growth built into everyday teaching

Grow captures the work educators are already doing in Mana, so development builds alongside the job, not on top of it.
Professional inquiry

Coaching that helps you find the thread in your practice

Educators can choose between a professional inquiry or direct goal setting. With professional inquiry, Sue opens with the right question and follows where it leads, drawing on your centre's philosophy and what she already knows about you and your team. Educators often start with one idea and come away ready to go somewhere they hadn't expected.
Journeys

A plan in your own words, broken into steps you can take

Mana builds a personalised plan in phases and steps, written in your own voice. Link learning stories, jottings, and documents from your everyday practice as evidence along the way, and at year end it all comes together in the annual statement, ready to verify and export.
Standards

Evidence that builds as you work

Professional growth evidence usually builds in a rush at year end. In Mana, the documentation educators already create automatically links to teaching standards, so the evidence is there when it's needed.
Mentoring

Mentoring that actually gets followed up

Mentoring sessions are scheduled automatically, and notes are written up after each one with any follow-ups landing straight in the educator's journey. Educators choose their own mentor based on whose practice inspires them, not who they report to.
For Leaders

A clear picture for leaders across the team

Grow gives leaders a real-time view of how growth is tracking across the team, who is on track, who is behind, and who hasn't started. It scales from a quick glance on the main dashboard all the way to detailed team reporting and org-level views across centres and regions.
